Former US basketball star and frequent North Korean visitor Dennis Rodman has accidentally shared the name of dictator Kim Jong Un's baby daughter Ju-ae.
According to The Guardian, when it comes to announcing a baby's name to the world, some will have a quiet word with friends and family while others might send a discreet email.
However, the Kim dynasty in North Korea has never been one for the orthodox, the report said.
Rodman said that he held Kim's baby Jue-ae and spoke with Ri, Kim's wife, adding that his North Korean friend was a good dad and had a beautiful family.
Rodman also plans to organise a basketball game between American and Korean teams, the report added.
